Chapter 111: The Angry Mother-in-law
Lü's expression had clearly wavered, and I was moved to let her go explain this matter to Song Tang. It would definitely be better than me saying it myself. If not, that dead child would definitely suspect me again at the wrong time.
"Mother, think carefully, what's more important, the so-called face or the safety of your husband?" I continued to persuade: "If they were gone, maybe your husband's illness would get better faster. When that time comes, he can strive for whatever he wants himself, which is much better than a useless face. Besides, your husband doesn't necessarily have his heart set on Hong Ling."
Lü's family seemed to have made up their minds, but they were still hesitant: "If Tang'er gets sick from worrying too much, I'm afraid it will..."
"It's not that the daughter-in-law is petty, but she can't stand seeing many people serving her husband. If we buy one person back, it's the same." I said: "Moreover, this matter was personally requested by Hong Ling herself. With this layer of kindness, in the future when we need to understand something about the main house, isn't it much more convenient?"
Lü's expression hesitated, gazing deeply at me. I saw desire in her eyes, and indeed she was unwilling to give up. Even if she had no power left, even if she would endure in silence, she still had desires.
The Song family's vast business has two sons. I can guarantee that the desires of the Lu family will not be less than those of the first lady, but they are currently hindered by a lack of power.
"It's reasonable to say that, so I'll go talk to Tang about it...” Mrs. Lü hesitated, suddenly turned the conversation around and looked at me seriously: “But you have to remember, no matter how ill Tang is, he is still your husband, and I don't want to see this kind of self-willed behavior from you again in the future.”
Well, I thought she was just a sick cat all along, but it seems that this Lu is not an ordinary person after all!
So I immediately nodded and agreed with her.
She felt a bit relieved and was just about to get up when Hong Ling brought in the dishes. She was smiling brightly, intending to pay her respects to Lu Shi, but unexpectedly Lu Shi let out a cold snort and walked away.
